Office Outfit: How About Her Shoes?

I rarely post outfit pictures because (1) they are always blurry, (2) my office outfits are rather boring, and (3) I hate pictures of myself. But today's outfit garnered amusing comments, so I'll share.

I feel incredibly awkward trying to pose for pictures. It helps if I can hold something. Conveniently, a dog was nearby. :D

Anyway... on to the story...
I was waiting in the checkout line at Walgreens pharmacy when two men walked by.
Man #1 said (flamboyantly): Ohmygod, I love everything about your outfit, from your hair to your skirt!
Me: Thank you.
Man #2 (pretending to admonish Man #1): How about her shoes? Ohmygod, you're so rude!
Man #1 (in mock seriousness): They're black. Like my soul.

You *do* look really cute! I actually just replied to a comment on my blog about my expression in my outfit posts. I never know what to do with my face which is why so many of them have that excited/surprised look. (:-D

Awkward is good, awkward is real =PI practice in front of a mirror before I take photos, then decide which one I'll attempt-- can never get my face to cooperate though... always think I am grinning when I'm not doing anything with my face at all...

I also feel silly posing for outfit photos and have trouble with my camera as I don't really know what I'm doing! I say post the photos anyway, I love seeing what other people are wearing.....love the bright velvet!!
